SFTH Clarissa x Amanda x Mark at Halloween Horror Nights (I FINALLY DREW IT)

(From my AU of a QPR between Aro/Ace Mark x Bi Clarissa x Lesbian Amanda)

Clarissa/Amanda/Mark date where they go to Halloween Horror Nights because Clarissa is a horror nerd and Markanda want to make her happy despite them very much not being a fan of horror movies.

So imagine the three of them in a line as they're walking through the haunted houses:

• Clarissa leading the group laughing and having fun

• Amanda is clutching Clarissa's shoulders and furiously screaming that she's gonna fight everything even if no one is actively jumpscaring her

• Mark is just bear-hugging Amanda from behind and hiding his face because Amanda is taller than him.

This too is clamanda

the dynamic between two people who love a third person so much and come to understand each other because of that is so important to me. you would put them first, and so would i. you understand why we have to save them from themself. i trust you with their life, and so, that means more than if i trusted you with mine. the love doesn't have to be the same, but it's powerful enough that you understand why you're not the only satellite drawn into their orbit.

Top 10 SFTH Characters

I told y'all it was coming, and here it is; my Top 10 favorite characters in the SFTH universe

10. Peter (The Milkman)

This kid knows how to twist a fucking knife, huh? He doesn’t even know what’s going on and somehow he manages to metaphorically stab David 37 times in the chest /ref. Peter is also my favorite example of Tom playing a traumatized child, he just does it so well here. I genuinely love the scene where David tells him his mom's not happy and he immediately apologizes and wants to go Go-Karting with her. Idk how Tom can portray that kind of character that well, but I'm glad we get to see it so frequently- Plus it was iconic of him to sing 'Tomorrow' twice, once while he was running for his life.

9. Mario the Sheep (The Lighthouse)

Everyone’s favorite inbred, part-human, cocaine using sheep that loses his mind (alongside Sam) throughout the storyline. There's not much to say about it other than the fact I love comic relief characters and who's more comic relief than this guy? It was also fun to watch Sam slowly die inside once the sheep was made a main character, that was great-

8. Marty (The Evil Make-A-Wish Kid)

Another instance of Sam’s portrayal and delivery making his character memorable as hell. The smirk and the voice he chose to use for all of his lines make Marty one of my favorite villains in their plays (OLM doesn’t count, I see her as more morally grey than anything). He's a great combination of being played for laughs and genuinely doing evil things. This kid lights his mom on fire and all he has to say about it is "I'm gonna miss games when I'm dead." It might be my favorite line in that play tbh, along with "Congratulations. You killed the kid"

7. Andrew (All Eyes On Nigel)

Along with the Janae type nerds (spoiler for later 🤫), I also have a soft spot for the naive/inexperienced characters, especially when they get a little fucked up by the end of their storyline. Andrew is a prime example of this in the SFTH universe, being all excited about his job as an officer, before being taken hostage and being given drugs starting to sound like a favorite character of mine from a different fandom...

6. Donnie (The Detective v The Christmas Tree Bandits)

THE ADHD icon. He’s far from the only SFTH character with diagnosed ADHD and idk about you but he’s the representation I wanted fr- and now he’s dead :( Even if his death wasn't as emotional of a scene as y'all made it out to be, it still makes me sad and I will be living in denial about it with the rest of you for while.

5. Janae (The Neighbor's Under The Bed)

Janae is the textbook definition of the ‘character way too smart for their age to an unrealistic level’, therefore she has to make an appearance on my favorites list. She also has the line "My Seismogram IS TRUE" which is such a good quotable line, I'm never getting over that-

4. Jimmy (Toby’s Secret Pocket)

Ah, the Fan Favorite Tom character who can’t get through a door if his life depended on it. Who can blame the audience for latching onto him? "I was just gonna say it's the racism" "I get lonely sometimes" "STOP IN THE NAME OF THE LAW" I mean, how can we be expected to not love him?

3. Old Lady Marjorie (The Unrelenting Aubergine)

I think everyone knows why she’s here. 1) She's another villain/morally grey character from Sam, 2) At least half of her witchery is just drugs, and 3) She slaps AJ- I mean James- 3 times, causing Sam- I mean Marjorie- to turn bright red from laughter. Absolute Cinema.

2. Amanda (Clarissa's DIY Wedding)

Tom’s other hopeless romantic gay character, I’m sensing a pattern in my favs- I've mentioned how much I love that Tom went straight for 'yearning lesbian' with this one in my other post, but I'm gonna talk about it in more detail because I can. She loves Clarissa so so much, but because she doesn't think the feelings are reciprocated (true or not-) she will make sure Clarissa and Mark have their wedding and that, above all, Clarissa is happy. This fact makes me love her more, but also makes me so very sad..

There were a few characters that didn't quite make it to the Top 10, so before we go to Number 1, here's a few:

Honorable Mentions

Scottish Robin (The Midnight Mystery) He would've been #10 but I had to add Janae so he got demoted

Aside from the general chaos he is, I love Robin from a meta standpoint, because it’s one of those moments that shows that Luke and Sam have the same exact sense of humor. Luke 100% did the “WE’RE GOING DOWN TO CHIPPY” bit purely to make Sam laugh, and boy did it work. Also the joy in Robin/Luke screaming “BATMAN” at the top of his lungs is great, he is in his element lmao

Caravan Brothers (No, I Always Loved That Caravan!)

Before I realized they’re called the Caravan Brothers in the fandom, I fully just called them the incest brothers because I think that gets the vibe across. Technically, I think the O’Hands Brothers would also be accurate. Weirdest fucking brothers I’ve ever seen, but in an iconic way. Besides, I always love another chance for Luke to go gremlin mode for a character.

Big Hans (Oh My God, Is This A Joke?)

So he might've made it to the main list, but something about putting a nazi character in the top 10 wasn't sitting right with me, so he’s in the honorable mentions instead (At least it's not Xavier-) To be clear I just like how he was immediately introduced as a 'pocket-sized aryan' that was absolutely fucking Ze Blackberry, then in his next scene his vibe had shifted and he was oddly fond of the French accent/language for some reason?? “Don’t make friends with them!” “Why not? :(” Bro was literally just happy to be there.

1. Derek (The Unrelenting Aubergine)

Surprising no one, Derek Gangles is everything to me. I have no idea what makes me like him more than any of their other romantic characters, there’s just something about how Tom plays him that makes him so endearing. I think part of it is how he seems to be constantly in awe and admiration of Titch, loving him in such a (relatively) innocent way. “Are we gonna have kids?” I can hear the puppy eyes in his voice, are you kidding me??

Best SFTH longform character ever, ROUND ROBIN (poll 311)

Edit cause propaganda:

First of all, she's a queer icon!

Second, she's a great friend. She stuck with Clarissa even if she didn't think Mark was the guy for her, and she helped her set up the wedding. All while being in love with her.

A lot of gays/lesbians fall in love with their straight friends and I feel like Amanda captures that feeling perfectly. Especially considering she still supported Clarissa's relationship.

Other than that, she's an iconic woman, and she interacts with the audience.

Through Space and Time

Clarissa had been anxious all day. 

Amanda could tell, because she wouldn't stop messing with her hair, twirling the short blond strands between her fingers, nails digging into the soft flesh at the base of her skull, fidgeting and unable to sit still. Amanda didn't know what to do. 

It had been… three years. Three years since she had confessed her feelings. Three years since Clarissa had picked him . 

There wasn't anything wrong with Mark. Not really. Not in any way that mattered, not to Clarissa. And that was all she needed. He was good to her. That was all Amanda could ask for. 

But ever since that fateful day, ever since she had made those two or three, offhanded, comments, after the adrenaline and everything had fallen away and Clarissa had gone home with Mark, curled into his arms, she had managed to piece together the pieces. Things hadn't been the same since. 

Amanda didn't know, anymore, how to balance along the line that was friends and not lovers. Not a crush. She had to weigh every point of contact, every smile, every laugh. Because now Clarissa knew. And everything had changed. 

Clarissa didn't mention it when her touch lingered, hand grazing hers for too long as she tried not to link their fingers together. Didn't point out that her joke hadn't been that funny, but Amanda had trained herself to admire everything about her- best friend, even her unfunny jokes. Mark laughed at them too, but that didn't matter. 

The door opened, and Mark entered the small house, built just for two, a smile appearing on his face when he spotted Clarissa, then immediately fading when he noticed her fidgeting. “What's wrong?” He asked, promptly, moving closer instinctively, because he was good to her. 

Two words. Said with such ease. Words Amanda had been battling all day over whether or not to say. Clarissa had invited her over, and Amanda had had plans, but those all fell away for a chance to be with her friend , and it had been good. Nice. She wanted to ask what was wrong. But maybe that wasn't her place anymore. Maybe that was just for Mark. Maybe that was for more than friends. So instead they'd had nice, polite conversation, a few laughs, maybe a glimpse at what their life could've been had Clarissa felt the same.

The house built for two, that, for just a few hours, Amanda could pretend belonged to them . She wanted to hug her friend, pull her into an embrace that she wouldn't shy away from, press a kiss to her head, and hold her hand without fear of it being misinterpreted. Take away her troubles for a while. But those were foolish wants. The dreams of a child. 

Amanda’s hands curled around her mug as Mark approached, brow furrowed. Clarissa smiled, hand relaxing from her hair, set at ease that simply. Just to be safe, because he didn't want her to feel bad, because he was good to her, Mark took them in his own to prevent fidgeting, and pulled up a third chair, the chair they’d bought because they knew Amanda would be over enough to warrant a seat at the table, if not a place in the home. She'd always be a guest.

Amanda watched as Clarissa’s fingers curled into his, fitting like puzzle pieces, his thumb brushing across her knuckles. Amanda had tried that too, in the beginning. Had held her hand and run her thumb across Clarissa’s knuckles in an attempt to soothe. But she had pulled away again. Heart aching of what could have been, at what wasn't. It wasn't her place, in the end, but it was his.

“I’m just… feeling a little… grateful, I guess.” Clarissa answered after a moment, leaning forward so she was against him. Nestled into his side. Amanda's fingernails dug grooves into her palms. Mark raised an eyebrow, glancing at her in what she assumed was solidarity. He was always trying to do that, to coax her into a friendship with him, to act as though they had an alliance against Clarissa, against her sometimes odd ways. He didn't know she would always pick Clarissa over him. And that Clarissa would always pick him.

Clarissa laughed, the sound light and free, not pinched and forced the way it had sounded before, and he hadn't even said anything funny, while Amanda had been pulling out a whole comedy routine. “Grateful.” Clarissa repeated, poking him in the side and earning a smile for her efforts. “Grateful for you. For you.” She looked at Amanda, one hand withdrawing from Mark’s to settle on top of hers instead. Amanda didn't dare to breathe.

“I was talking to that little boy from under the bridge, you know?” She glanced at them both, asking for confirmation they knew who she was talking about.

“The little troll boy?” Mark questioned, because of course he knew. Clarissa smiled at the acknowledgement of being seen, nodding.

“Yes. And he was telling me all about his best friend, Tobias, and how they’ve started a wine business together,” She laughed, pressing her head against Mark’s shoulder to contain herself. “They’re the absolute cutest Mark, you should've seen them.” She shook herself, smiling over at Amanda. “And they reminded me of us.” Her hand squeezed, and it took Amanda every ounce of willpower not to scream.

“Of how much I love you two. And how much friends truly mean.” Mark dropped her hand, choosing instead to wrap an arm around her shoulders. Amanda would have enjoyed the sweet moment, was her heart not breaking. There'd never been hope. Not really. But it still hurt. Every time. 

“Friends are truly special.” Mark agreed, throwing a wink at Amanda. “But more than friends are great too, right?” Amanda swallowed hard, staring at the table. It was a beautiful table, truly. Rich, deep mahogany. Very nice to look at. Very interesting. 

Clarissa found him more interesting, however, and she laughed, removing her hand from Amanda’s to wrap around him. “Right.” She agreed.

Amanda watched her pull away, the lingering feel of her touch still haunting her palm, and swallowed a too hot gulp of tea, eyes averted from the happy couple. There was a cool knot in the table that looped around in a circle and looked quite beautiful.

She wondered, if maybe, just maybe, there was a version of her that was happy with just being Clarissa’s friend. If maybe, just maybe, she got to be the one to marry her. Amanda sighed, too quiet to be overheard by the couple lost in each others eyes, and stared wistfully at the table, at where Clarissa’s hand had been, at what they could have been.

Maybe in another universe.
